Hi people. This MOC features two major figures of the United Pirate Clans and their exclusive Mobile Suits.

About this creation

Past:The General survived the previous war and earned the title of Ace. After the war, he was promoted and transfered to a military training facility where he had to train new
recruits. Later on he was put in charge of the facility, it was this time around he met his best student and future second in command, Sakura. She was a war orphan and was
saved by Goto who than raised her as a daughter. She became quite good at marksmanship and quick manuvers with a Mobile Suit. Some people from HQ however didn't like
how a "simple" pilot was given the task to command a training facility, thus they framed him in order to remove him from his position. He was accused of treachery and murder
and he was sent to execution. Before his execution however, Sakura rescued her teacher with a stolen Mobile Suit and they fled from the colony. After 1 year of hiding, they
ended up joining the remnant forces of the Empire that lost the war, after a few years of silence and peace, out of nowhere the Pirate Clan Union appeared and raided a whole
colony and other military installations. The team that raided the installations and stole some prototype MSs was led by non other than Goto himself.

Present: Now, General Goto is one of the 3 Great Shogun leaders, accompanied by his loyal and deadly second in command Sakura. He's seeking revenge and glory on the
battlefields. Altough his on the side of the pirates, he never attacks civilian installations and colonies. He's respected by his men who would give their lives for their general. Also, he hates the pilot of the Sin Gundam, but symphatises with the pilot of the Valor Gundam.

Now on to the Suits!!

And the best pic for last! I really like this one.

Whew...this took me some time to make and write! Thanks for reading and viewing! Tell me your toughts about this MOC and the "Story" I'm trying to make. PS: Goto was inspired by Anavel "The Nightmare of Solomon" Gato and Andrew Waltfeld. Sakura was inspired by Lunamaria Hawke and Marida Cruz. (Gundam fans will know who these characters are!)

Very Nice Custom Zakus. The Swords Tied For Me Made The Mechs Tie Into The Theme. I Have To Admit, While I Was Making The HF Blades For Intrepid, I Had Considered Hinged Blades But Was Unable To Blend The Katana Look With The Weaponry Style Of The Urocyon, And So I Went With Straight Blades. Nice Work On These.

Yet another fantastic addition to your collection! I see Katanas. I like Katanas. I like the shoulder cannons, by the way. The use of those cables coupled with the ammo pack under the pauldrons was a good idea. ^Blub^

Look dude, one awesome mech at a time please, or your awesomeness is going to kill me XD great backstory,great mechs, great poses, great weapons, and thats all you need to know. The only single possible complaint i could think of making is the fact that Shogun Zaku's shoulder autocannons look exactly like Karas Zaku's auto beam cannon, even though they are completely different weapon types. Though this is a minor detail that i really could care less about, 10/5 bro nice work!

Um, it was just a miss typing from me ^^ I was in a hurry to write stuff down so I missed the word "beam" :D, so they are the same weapons :) Oh and, you'd better prepare yourself because I still have 3 seperate MOCs totally finished, just have to do some poses and take some pics!

REALLY awesome! amazing job! you do a great job on these Mechs! the only negative I can see in the entire thing is that the horns on their helmets look a bit small, but even that's only a tiny problem. spectacular work!

Thanks! Well yeah, the horns really are too small, but I couldn't find anything else that would do for the head ornament.
